Obituary of Cecelia Paulette Derworiz

Cecelia passed away on March 14 in the arms of her husband John, with her head on his chest. She is survived by her true love and husband John Arthur, who was always there for her with love and support; three children: Darwin of Calgary, Alberta; Lisa of Edmonton, Alberta; Deidre of Paris, France; four grandchildren; four great friends: Dianne, Adaline, Joanne and Maria, all of whom she couldn’t have survived without their support. A very special thank you to Dr. Altman of CancerCareManitoba. Cecelia could not have survived as long as she did without his help. Also special thanks to Dr. Christa Slatnik who helped Cecelia through her illness like no one else could have. Thanks to all the nurses at Clinic Three and the third floor chemotherapy treatment at CancerCare Manitoba. She dreaded the chemo but she loved seeing all her new friends that she made as a result of her treatments. Also thanks to all the nurses at the Morris General Hospital palliative care for their kindness. In lieu of flowers and cards anyone so wishing can make a donation in her memory to the John and Cecelia Arthur OvarionCancer Research Fund at the following link: ovariancanada.org/donate/CeceliaArthur In lieu of a funeral, a celebration of her life will be held in the spring. The last words I said to her were: “I love you” and the last words she said to me were “I love you more”. I love you sweetheart. You were my Life. You will be in my heart and soul forever until it is my time to join you in heaven with all our puppies and bunnies. Love always and forever, John xo xo xo
